Re: Film For SprintScan 120

Hello Shilesh,

>seeking recommendations for film,...

That's a tall order.  There are many good films and each has its
adherents.  The only way to know for sure what they are like and which
you prefer is to try them.  FWIW, for a good number of years I
experimented with many films and developers but always kept coming
back to good old Tri-X.  For 120 size it comes in both ISO 320 and
400.  I prefer the 400 myself.  It's just a terrific film.  I'll leave
it at that.

Regards,
Clayton
